open hood INFINITI QX60 2023 Owners Manual

•If the light does not illuminate with the
ignition switch placed in the ON position,
have the vehicle checked as soon as pos-
sible. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
•
If the light illuminates while driving, avoid
sudden steering maneuvers or abrupt
braking, reduce vehicle speed, pull off the
road to a safe location and stop the vehicle
as soon as possible. Driving with under-
inflated tires may permanently damage
the tires and increase the likelihood of tire
failure. Serious vehicle damage could oc-
cur and may lead to an accident and could
result in serious personal injury or death.
Check the tire pressure for all four tires.
Adjust the tire pressure to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure show on the
Tire and Loading Information label lo-
cated in the driver’s door opening to turn
the low tire pressure warning light OFF. If
the light still illuminates while driving af-
ter adjusting the tire pressure, a tire may
be flat or the TPMS may be malfunction-
ing. If you have a flat tire, replace it with a
spare tire as soon as possible. If no tire is
flat and all tires are properly inflated, have
the vehicle checked. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
• When using a wheel without the TPMS
such as the spare tire, the TPMS will not
function and the low tire pressure
warning light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute. The light will remain on
after 1 minute. Have your tires replaced
and/or TPMS system reset as soon as
possible. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for these
services.
• Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
CAUTION
• The TPMS is not a substitute for the
regular tire pressure check. Be sure to
check the tire pressure regularly.
• If the vehicle is being driven at speeds of
less than 16 mph (25 km/h), the TPMS
may not operate correctly.
• Be sure to install the specified size of
tires to the four wheels correctly.
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) (if so equipped)
If this indicator light comes on steady or
blinks while the engine is running, it may indi-
cate a potential emission control
malfunction.
The MIL may also come on steady if the
vehicle runs out of fuel. Check to make sure
that the vehicle has at least 3 gal (11.4 L) of
fuel in the fuel tank.
After a few driving trips, the
light should
turn off if no other potential emission control
system malfunction exists.
If this indicator light comes on steady for
20 seconds and then blinks for 10 seconds
when the engine is not running, it indicates
that the vehicle is not ready for an emission
control system inspection/maintenance test.
For additional information, see “Readiness
for inspection/maintenance (I/M) test”
(P. 10-34).
Instruments and controls2-19

Low tire pressure warning
If the vehicle is being driven with low tire
pressure, the warning indicator will illumi-
nate. A “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air”
warning also appears in the vehicle informa-
tion display.
When the low tire pressure warning indica-
tor appears, you should stop and adjust the
tire pressure of all four tires to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label located in
the driver's door opening. The low tire pres-
sure warning indicator does not automati-
cally turn off when the tire pressure is ad-
justed. After the tire is inflated to the
recommended pressure, the vehicle must be
driven at speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h) to
activate the TPMS and turn off the low tire
pressure warning indicator. Use a tire pres-
sure gauge to check the tire pressure.
The “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air” warning
appears each time the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position as long as the low
tire pressure warning indicator remains
illuminated.
For additional information, see “Vehicle in-
formation display—12.3 inch (31 cm) Type B”
(P. 2-44), “Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)” (P. 5-5) or (P. 6-3).
TPMS malfunction
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the
low tire pressure warning indicator will flash
for approximately 1 minute when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position. The indi-
cator will remain on after 1 minute. Have the
system checked. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service. The
"Tire Pressure Low — Add Air" warning does
not appear if the low tire pressure warning
indicator appears to indicate a TPMS
malfunction.
For additional information, see “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P. 5-5) and “Tire
pressure” (P. 8-28).
WARNING
• Radio waves could adversely affect elec-
tric medical equipment. Those who use a
pacemaker should contact the electric
medical equipment manufacturer for the
possible influences before use.
• If the indicator does not appear with the
ignition switch placed in the ON position,
have the vehicle checked as soon as pos-
sible. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service. •
If the indicator appears while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneuvers or
abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed,
pull off the road to a safe location and
stop the vehicle as soon as possible. Driv-
ing with under-inflated tires may perma-
nently damage the tires and increase the
likelihood of tire failure. Serious vehicle
damage could occur and may lead to an
accident and could result in serious per-
sonal injury or death. Check the tire pres-
sure for all four tires. Adjust the tire
pressure to the recommended COLD tire
pressure show on the Tire and Loading
Information label located in the driver’s
door opening to turn the low tire pres-
sure indicator off. If the indicator still ap-
pears while driving after adjusting the
tire pressure, a tire may be flat or the
TPMS may be malfunctioning. If you
have a flat tire, replace it with a spare
tire as soon as possible. If no tire is flat
and all tires are properly inflated, have
the vehicle checked. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.

SECURITY SYSTEMS
Instruments and controls2-71

The system helps deter vehicle theft but can-
not prevent it nor can it prevent the theft of
interior or exterior vehicle components in all
situations. Always secure your vehicle even if
parking for a brief period. Never leave your
Intelligent Key in the vehicle, and always lock
the vehicle when unattended. Be aware of
your surroundings, and park in secure, well-lit
areas whenever possible.
Many devices offering additional protection,
such as component locks, identification
markers, and tracking systems, are available
at auto supply stores and specialty shops. An
INFINITI retailer may also offer such equip-
ment. Check with your insurance company to
see if you may be eligible for discounts for
various theft protection features.
How to arm the vehicle security
system
1. Close all windows and the moonroof.(The
system can be armed even if the windows
and moonroof are open.)
2. Remove the Intelligent Key from the vehicle.
3. Close all doors, hood and liftgate. Lock all doors. The doors can be locked with the
Intelligent Key, door handle request
switch, or power door lock switch. 4. Wait 30 seconds for the system to com-
plete the pre-armed phase. If during the
pre-armed phase one of the following oc-
curs, the system will not arm:
• Any door is unlocked with the Intelligent Key or door request switch.
• Ignition switch is placed in ON position.
• Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will activate
with all the doors, hood and liftgate locked
with the ignition switch placed in the
LOCK position. When placing the ignition
switch in the ON position, the system will
be released.
Vehicle security system activation
The vehicle security system will give the fol-
lowing alarm:
• The turn signals blink and the horn sounds intermittently.
• The alarm automatically turns off after a period of time. However, the alarm reacti-
vates if the vehicle is tampered with again.
The alarm can be shut off by pressing the
button on the Intelligent Key. The alarm is activated by:
• Opening the door or liftgate without using
the Intelligent Key (even if the door is un-
locked by releasing the door inside lock
switch).
How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm stops only by unlocking the driver’s
door or the liftgate by pressing the
button on the Intelligent Key or pushing the
request switch on the driver's or passenger's
door with the Intelligent Key in range of the

CAUTION
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or other strong radio wave
sources are present near the operating lo-
cation, the Intelligent Key operating range
becomes narrower, and the Intelligent Key
may not function properly.
The Remote Engine Start function can only
be used when the Intelligent Key is within the
specified operating range from the vehicle.
The Remote Engine Start operating range is
approximately 197 ft (60 m) from the vehicle.
REMOTE STARTING THE

but-
ton for at least 2 seconds. The following events will occur when the en-
gine starts:
• The parking lights will turn on and remain
on as long as the engine is running.
• The doors will be locked and the climate control system may come on.
• The engine will continue to run for 10 min- utes. Repeat the steps to extend the time
for an additional 10 minutes. For additional
information, see “Extending engine run
time” (P. 3-19).
Press and hold the brake pedal while switch-
ing the ignition to the ON position before

ing the vehicle” (P. 5-18).
EXTENDING ENGINE RUN TIME
The Remote Engine Start feature can be ex-
tended one time by performing the steps
listed in “Remote starting the vehicle”
(P. 3-19). Run time will be calculated as
follows:
• The first 10 minute run time will start when the Remote Engine Start function is
performed. • The second 10 minutes will start immedi-
ately when the Remote Engine Start func-
tion is performed again. For example, if the
engine has been running for 5 minutes, and
10 minutes are added, the engine will run
for a total of 15 minutes.
• Extending engine run time will bring you to the two Remote Engine Start limit.
A maximum of two Remote Engine Starts, or
a single start with an extension, are allowed
between ignition cycles.
The vehicle must be driven at speeds of 4
mph (7 km/h) before the remote engine start
procedure can be used again.

3-20Pre-driving checks and adjustments

1. Pull the hood lock release handleO1lo-
cated below the driver side instrument
panel. The hood will spring up slightly.
2. Push the lever
O2at the front of the hood
upward as illustrated with your fingertips
and raise the hood.
When closing the hood, lower it slowly and
make sure it locks into place.
WARNING
• Make sure the hood is completely closed
and latched before driving. Failure to do
so could cause the hood to fly open and
result in an accident.
• If you see steam or smoke coming from
the engine compartment, to avoid injury
do not open the hood.
WARNING
• Always be sure the liftgate has been
closed securely to prevent it from open-
ing while driving.
• Do not drive with the liftgate open. This
could allow dangerous exhaust gases to
be drawn into the vehicle. For additional
information, see “Exhaust gas (carbon
monoxide)” (P. 5-4).
• To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the ve-
hicle and/or its systems, including en-
trapment in windows or inadvertent
door lock activation, do not leave chil-
dren, people who require the assistance
of others or pets unattended in your ve-
hicle. Additionally, the temperature in-
side a closed vehicle on a warm day can
quickly become high enough to cause a
significant risk of injury or death to
people and pets.
• Always be sure that hands and feet are
clear of the door frame to avoid injury
while closing the liftgate.

HOOD LIFTGATE
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-21

Additional information:
• When using a wheel without the TPMSsuch as the spare tire, the TPMS does not
monitor the tire pressure of the spare tire.
• The TPMS will activate only when the ve- hicle is driven at speeds above 16 mph (25
km/h). Also, this system may not detect a
sudden drop in tire pressure (for example, a
flat tire while driving).
• The low tire pressure warning light does not automatically turn off when the tire
pressure is adjusted. After the tire is in-
flated to the recommended pressure, the
vehicle must be driven at speeds above 16
mph (25 km/h) to activate the TPMS and
turn off the low tire pressure warning light.
Use a tire pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure.
• The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” warning appears in the vehicle information display
when the low tire pressure warning light is
illuminated and low tire pressure is de-
tected. The “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air”
warning turns off when the low tire pres-
sure warning light turns off.
• The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” warning appears each time the ignition switch is in
the ON position as long as the low tire
pressure warning light remains illuminated. • The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” warning
does not appear if the low tire pressure
warning light illuminates to indicate a
TPMS malfunction.
• Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation
and the outside temperature. Do not re-
duce the tire pressure after driving because
the tire pressure rises after driving. Low
outside temperature can lower the tem-
perature of the air inside the tire which can
cause a lower tire inflation pressure. This
may cause the low tire pressure warning
light to illuminate. If the warning light illu-
minates, check the tire pressure for all four
tires.
• The Tire and Loading Information label is located in the driver's door opening.
• You can also check the pressure of all tires (except the spare tire) on the vehicle infor-
mation display screen. The order of the tire
pressure figures displayed on the screen
corresponds with the actual order of the
tire position.
For additional information, see “Low tire
pressure warning light” (P. 2-18),“Tire Pres-
sure Low — Add Air” (P. 2-67) and “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P. 6-3).WARNING
• Radio waves could adversely affect elec-
tric medical equipment. Those who use a
pacemaker should contact the electric
medical equipment manufacturer for the
possible influences before use.
• If the low tire pressure warning light illu-
minates while driving, avoid sudden
steering maneuvers or abrupt braking,
reduce vehicle speed, pull off the road to
a safe location and stop the vehicle as
soon as possible. Driving with under-
inflated tires may permanently damage
the tires and increase the likelihood of
tire failure. Serious vehicle damage could
occur and may lead to an accident and
could result in serious personal injury.
Check the tire pressure for all four tires.
Adjust the tire pressure to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure shown on
the Tire and Loading Information label to
turn the low tire pressure warning light
off. If you have a flat tire, replace it with
a spare tire as soon as possible. For addi-
tional information, see “Flat tire”
(P. 6-3) for changing a flat tire.
5-6Starting and driving

• If the sonar sensors are dirty, wipe them offwith a soft cloth while being careful to not
damage them.
• The sonar sensors may be blocked by tem- porary ambient conditions such as splash-
ing water, mist or fog. The blocked condi-
tion may also be caused by objects such as
ice, frost or dirt obstructing the sonar sen-
sors. Check for and remove objects ob-
structing the area around the sonar
sensors.
• Do not subject the area around the sonar sensors to strong impact. Also, do not re-
move or disassemble the sonar sensors. If
the sonar sensors and peripheral areas are
deformed in an accident, etc., have the so-
nar sensors checked by an INFINITI retailer.
• Do not attach stickers (including transpar- ent material), install accessories or apply
additional paint on the sonar sensors and
their surrounding areas. This may cause a
malfunction or improper operation.
• When washing the vehicle using a high- pressure washer, do not apply direct
washer pressure on the sonar sensors. This
may cause a malfunction of the sonar
sensors. The Idling Stop System activates to prevent
unnecessary fuel consumption, exhaust
emissions and noise.
• When you stop the vehicle, the engine is
turned off automatically.
• When you release the brake pedal to begin moving again, the engine is turned on
automatically.
WARNING
The engine restarts if the vehicle moves at
approximately 1 mph (2 km/h) or more (on
a downhill grade, etc.) while the engine is
turned off by the Idling Stop System. De-
press the brake pedal immediately to stop
the vehicle to prevent an accident.
CAUTION
At the end of the journey the engine must
be stopped and ignition switch be pushed
off. Lock the vehicle as normal. Pushing the
ignition switch off will shut down all elec-
trical systems. Failure to do this may result
in a discharged battery.
NOTE:
The Idling Stop System will not activate un-
der the following conditions:
• When the engine is kept idling without the
vehicle being driven after the engine is
turned on.
• When the engine coolant temperature is
low.
• When the battery capacity is low.
• When the battery temperature is low.
• When the vehicle is moving.
• When a negative pressure booster
decreases.
• When the engine hood is opened with the
engine running.
• When the engine is turned on with the en-
gine hood open.
• When the driver’s seat belt is not fastened.
• When the driver’s door is open.
• When the steering wheel is operated.
• When the Idling Stop System indicator
blinks at a low speed.
•
When the fan speed control is in any position
other than “OFF,” (0) while the air flow con-
trol is in the front defogger position.
• When the front defroster switch is on.
